5._______The pipe symbol (|) is used to send, or pipe, the output
                                       of  one  program  to  a  second  program  as  the  third
                                       program's input.


                            7. Choose the word that would best keep the meaning of
                            each sentence:

                            1. The && symbol causes the second command to run only if the
                            first command succeeds.

                            a) prosper;
                            b) follow;
                            c) fail;
                            d) replace.

                            2. You can resolve such ambiguities by using the caret (^) as an
                            escape to indicate that whatever follows it is a character rather than
                            a command symbol.

                            a) conclude;
                            b) settle;
                            c) discuss;
                            d) decide.

                            3. You might think that because no space comes before or after the
                            & symbol, the system will know that you are referring to the file
                            name Tom&Jerry.

                            a) area;
                            b) location;
                            c) cosmos;
                            d) room.

                            4.  You  can  pause  or  cancel  a  command  that  you  enter  at  the
                            command prompt.
                            a) erase;
                            b) delete;
                            c) rescind;
                            d) rewrite.
